✦ Synopsis


An unstable free radical beam of SH was produced by the reaction of fluorine atoms with H,S and effused from a Teflon nozzle. The beam was focused using sextupole electric fields. Monte Carlo trajectory simulations showed 300 f 50 K as the rotational temperature for the chemically produced SH, so that an oriented SH beam with (cos ~9) = -0.28 could be available in the presence of an intense electric field. The beam intensity of the focused SH is estimated to be about 10" molecule sr-' SC'.
